Having watched Virginia - the master of the pack line- extensively, there should be ample opportunity for offensive rebounds.

The biggest thing I hate about pack line rules is the collapsing help from the wing off any penetration. It's rarely able to offer real help and if the ball handler recognizes it there is a wide open 3 at a great angle off the kick out.

1.) Rebound (I think CU should be able to take advantage in this category)
2.) Tenacious perimeter D

I think these should be the focus for the Buffs. Seems like Illinois lives or dies by the three. I also think 1-5, we match up well athletically. For as cocky as the fans sound, the team seems to really be giving the Buffs a ton of respect.
